I don't believe in just killing minorities who do such heinous crimes, all people are created equal. Plus, I am at least five minorities. So tell me, what are you on about?

So does life without parole -- at least, it's enough of a guarantee unburdened by bad social side effects, to satisfy me.

My question is, why give the government such power at all?

Hypocrisy would only apply if I had said I oppose the death penalty because it's cruel to the convicted criminals. Kindly quote me saying that and you'll have a point. Otherwise, go find someone who does say that and score your point on them. But don't waste your time waiting for me to defend a position I never held or an argument I never made.

No. Why give governments the authority to kill people, be it quickly or slowly.

I don't think governments should have the authority to kill people as punishment for crimes. But I would dispute any argument that claims that imprisoning someone for life amounts to killing them just because they are in prison when their life ends. To kill someone, you have to cause their death directly, in a manner that causes them to die as a direct result of the action. The fact that there are life-time prisoners who die of old age, at a very old age, is strong evidence that merely imprisoning someone is not the same as taking a direct action to cause their death.

Jiraua wrote:How would this relate to the ancient Roman punishment for Vestal Virgins who no longer met that second requirement? Roman authorities would seal them in caves by rolling large boulders before the entrance, and despite having a store of food and water, the young woman being punished would be dead inside of two months. Is this a death penalty?

Bullets are too expensive for the likes of murderers and rapists, plus loose silicone injections into the brain are just as effective. After proper anastesia.

you consider bullets too expensive yet will pay for an anesthesiologist, the anesthesia, the silicone and the doctor to administer said Silicone?
